MOVIE: Sin City 2 may shoot later this year

Posted on by

During his panel at the San Diego Comic Con, Robert Rodriguez announced that Frank Miller has indeed completed the script for Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill For.  The sequel will not only include an adaptation of the Sin City arc, but two new stories set in the world of Sin City.  Rodriguez revealed that the title for one of them will be The Long Bad Night.

Because Rodriguez basically controls all means of production and shoots most of it on green screen, the director stated that the film could begin shooting as early as later this year.

ART RUMOR: Dark Knight splash page going up for auction

Posted on by

According to Bleeding Cool, an iconic splash page from the 1980′s may be going up on the auction block in a few weeks.  The site reports that Frank Miller and Klaus Janson’s splash page from the Hunt the Dark Knight issue of The Dark Knight Returns will be offered up to someone who has really deep pockets.  In the last several months pages from The Watchmen, Captain America, and Superman have hit the art auction circuit, and have fetched some pretty high prices.

Whoever gets this piece should feel pretty happy to have this on display in their space.  And for the person who comes in second, please feel free to contact me.  I think I have a better way for you to flush away invest your excess millions.
